Python 3.0 Alpha 1 released: You want it because it’s cool.

August 31st, 2007 § 0 comments

It doth seem that per the main python.org site, Python 3.0 (aka Python 3000, aka “WHERE IS REDUCE?”, aka “There’s a GIL?”) is out and avail­able! Hoorah!

If you want to know what’s going on hit up the newly for­mat­ted “What’s New?” docs (they use the new-style docs) and read up.

For code con­ver­sion — you’re going to need the 2to3 tool from sub­ver­sion linked off the py3k page.

Test, test and re-test! File bugs! This is an alpha — the final is slated for August 2008 (per the page) so remem­ber, no war­ranty is implied here.

What's this?
